KAERI (Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute) has been operating an integral effect test facility, the Advanced Thermal-Hydraulic Test Loop for Accident Simulation (ATLAS), for transient and accident simulations of advanced pressurized water reactors (PWRs). Using ATLAS, a high-quality integral effect test database has been established for major design basis accidents of the APR1400 plant. A Domestic Standard Problem (DSP) exercise using the ATLAS database was promoted to transfer the database to domestic nuclear industries and contribute to improving a safety analysis methodology for PWRs. This $2^{nd}$ ATLAS DSP (DSP-02) exercise aims at an effective utilization of an integral effect database obtained from ATLAS, the establishment of a cooperation framework among the domestic nuclear industry, a better understanding of the thermal hydraulic phenomena, and an investigation into the possible limitation of the existing best-estimate safety analysis codes. A small break loss of coolant accident with a 6-inch break at the cold leg was determined as a target scenario by considering its technical importance and by incorporating interests from participants. This DSP exercise was performed in an open calculation environment where the integral effect test data was open to participants prior to the code calculations. This paper includes major information of the DSP-02 exercise as well as comparison results between the calculations and the experimental data.

본 연구에서는 1995년부터 2008년까지 14년간 국내에서 발생한 5.100건의 가스사고사례를 수집하여 Database를 구축하였으며, 이를 근거로 세부형태 및 원인별로 분석하였다. Poisson 분석법을 적용하여 전체 도시가스사고를 분석한 결과, 향후 5년 동안 "취급부주의-폭발-배관"의 항목의 사고발생확률이 가장 높았으며, "연결이완부식-누출-배관"의 경우는 가장 작은 발생 확률을 나타내었다. 또한 LPG 기화기 관련 사고만을 분석한 결과는 "LPG-기화기-화재"가 가장 높은 사고발생확률을 나타냈으며, "LPG-기화기-제품결함"이 가장 낮은 사고발생확률인 것으로 분석되었다. 아울러 Jet fire를 수반하는 외국의 LPG 사고를 비교 분석한 결과 국내의 경우와 마찬가지로 설비적 결함인 액유출장치 및 열교환기의 결함이 Jet fire를 일으키는 주요 원인으로 분석되었지만 향후 5년간 사고발생횟수는 "LPG-설비적결함-Jet fire" 항목이 가장 많았고, "LPG-설비적결함-Vapor Cloud" 항목은 가장 사고발생확률이 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 향후 가스 사고 발생 예측프로그램에 Poisson 분포 이론을 접목함으로서 일관성 있는 기준제시 및 현장에서 실제적으로 사용할 수 있는 도구로 사용되길 기대한다.

본 연구에서는 1991년부터 최근까지 16년간 발생된 3,593건의 가스사고[천연가스(NG) 및 액화석유가스(LPG)]사례를 수집하여 Database를 구축하였으며, 이를 근거로 사고의 발생건수를 형태 및 원인별로 분석하였다. 분석결과를 살펴보면 사고의 형태로는 누출, 폭발, 그리고 화재의 순서로 많이 발생하였다. 사고발생위치로는 화재는 밸브부위에서, 폭발은 호스부위에서, 그리고 누출은 배관부근에서 가스사고가 많이 발생한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 화재, 폭발, 누출의 각각의 경우에 Poisson 분석법을 적용하여 향후 5년 이내의 화재, 폭발 및 누출에 대한 가장 가능성이 높은 발생확률을 예측하였다. 향후 본 연구에서 구축한 국내가스사고 Database를 매년 지속적으로 보완 개정을 하면 국내 가스사고 예측에 대한 보다 신뢰성 있는 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있어 효과적인 가스안전관리 대책수립에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

The systematic information management of chemical accidents has been required as a tool for the policy making, system improvement and release of information concerning accident prevention. However, there is not yet a systematic chemical accidents tracking system in Korea, which make confusion among the related government agencies and the parties to accidents that the related statistics are different from each others. In this study, We developed the Chemical Accident Tracking System (CATS) using chemical accident classification which was made up of 12 upper classes, 70 middle classes, 272 lower classes. The CATS is mainly consist list up module, reporting module, searching and statistic module, etc. The CATS is expected to be applied to the information tracking and database system for chemical accidents and improve its manageability.

천연가스는 폭발성 유체로 고압의 매설 배관 파손시 심각한 인적/물적 손해를 야기할 수 있으며, 최근에도 실제 매설 배관의 파손으로 상당한 인명피해가 발생한 사례가 보고되고 있다. 국내의 경우, 급속한 성장 및 보급에도 불구하고 천연가스 배관의 운영 길이와 운영기간이 짧아 가스배관의 사고원인 등에 대한 유효한 사고데이터의 확립이 부족한 실정이다. 국내에서 사고 사례에 대한 데이터베이스를 체계적으로 구축하기 위하여 국내보다 천연가스 배관의 운용 역사가 길고, 긴 배관망을 갖고 있는 해외 주요국에서 발생한 최근의 천연가스 배관관련 사고의 원인과 빈도를 분석하는 것이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해외 주요국에서 가스배관의 사고원인별 발생 빈도의 추이를 파악한 후 이를 비교 분석하여 국내 고압가스 운송 배관망의 안정성 확보의 토대를 구축하고자 하였다.

Power supply system of electric railway has a diversity of safety problems since it should supply high electric power to the trains moving high speed with a lot of passengers on board. This paper provides a risk assessment approach to safety management of the electric railway facilities. Construction of database from field accident information, risk assessment and management of the risk are carried out systematically to ensure the safety. The risk assessment includes hazard identification, cause analysis by FTA(Fault Tree Analysis), consequence analysis by EVA(Event Tree Analysis), and loss analysis. In terms of the severity and the probability of the accidents deduced by these analyses, the risk of the accidents is assessed by using a risk matrix designed for electric railway facilities. Based on the risk assessment, possible risk mitigation options are identified and evaluated by analyzing their impact on the risk reduction and their cost benefit ratio. The long-term safety of the electric railway facilities can be ensured by renewal of the risk assessment and the risk mitigation option analysis with continuous accident database update. The proposed approach is applied to the electric railway facilities of Korean railway based on the accident data from 2002 to 2008.

Research on the safety of autonomous vehicle is being conducted in various countries, including the European Union, and computer simulation techniques so called 'Virtual Tool Chain' are mainly used. As part of the crash safety study of autonomous vehicle, 25 car to car collision scenarios were provided as a result of a real accident-based accident reproduction analysis study conducted by a domestic research institution, and a vehicle crash analysis was performed using the FE car to car model of the Honda Accord. In order to analyze the results of the car to car simulation and to construct a database, major crash parameters were selected as impact speed, angle, location, and overlap, and a method of defining them in an indexed form was presented. In order to compare the crash severity of each scenario, a value obtained by integrating the resultant acceleration measured by the ACU of the vehicle was applied. The equivalent collision test mode was derived by comparing the crash severity of the regulation test mode, 30 deg rigid barrier mode, in the same way.

It is necessary to develop the one stop system in order to protect our marine environment rapidly from oil spill accident. The purpose of this study is to develop real time database for oil spill prediction modeling and implement real time prediction modelling with ESI and server-client GIS based user interface. The existing oil spill prediction model cannot provide one stop information system for public and government who should protect sea from oil spill accident. The development of multi user based information system permits integrated handling of real time meteorological data from external ftp. A server-client GIS based model is integrated on the basis of real time database and ESI map to provide the result of the oil spill prediction model. End users can access through the client interface and request analysis such as oil spill prediction and GIS functions on the network as their own purpose.

In recent years, the accidents in construction projects are continuously increasing due to their complexity and variety. However, few studies have been conducted regarding the risk prediction model and the database of risk assessment in construction projects. To address of these issues, the objective of this study is to analyze the accident causes by using insured claim payouts of insurance companies. First, the descriptive analysis of accidents causes is conducted according to scheduling rate, season, and total construction costs. Second, the correlation analysis is conducted between accidents causes and total construction costs. In the future, the risk assessment model can be developed to quantify the accident causes in construction projects to estimate claim payouts of insurance companies.
